NKBA Announces 2017 Design Competition Winners

We have our winners! The NKBA is pleased to announce the winning designers of the 2017 NKBA Design Competition. The annual competition allows NKBA members to submit their recent kitchen and bath projects for prizes and industry recognition.

More than 20 individuals were honored across six main kitchen and bath categories and six specialty categories. Entries were judged based on the core areas of safety and ergonomics, elements and principles of design, design planning, creativity and presentation.

“The NKBA Design Competition offers our members the opportunity to demonstrate their design abilities and stand out in the industry,” said NKBA CEO Bill Darcy. “With an emphasis on innovative concepts and creative expression, this competition communicates the value of professional design to consumers and the industry at large.”

Winners were announced at an awards ceremony held on January 9th at Disney’s Epcot World Showplace in Orlando, prior to the opening day of the 2017 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS®). Nearly 400 industry professionals attended the event which was moderated by actor and comedian Orlando Jones.
